About Me

I love the outdoors. Hiking, hunting, working the land and rock climbing are all things I enjoy doing. Right now I'm going to college, studying for a business degree. I make my living as an electrician, doing new construction. After I graduate, I hope to become an officer in the United States Marine Corps.

Why I am a Mormon

I am a Mormon because this church teaches the doctrine of Christ in beautiful simplicity. God directs his church today as He did in ancient days, by revelation. I have a testimony that the Bible and Book of Mormon are the word of God. I know that Jesus Christ lives, and that He is our Savior and Redeemer. This is His church

I attend my ward's meetings each week. As a youth, I served in various callings within the young men, helping coordinate youth activities. Right now, I'm preparing to leave to serve as a full-time missionary in Africa

For me, every time I go out into the mountains around my home, I can see the evidence of God's hand in this beautiful Earth. Once you get away from man's creations and closer to God's, you just feel a closeness with our Father and creator and a complete awe at His worksShow moreShow less

God makes it easy for us to follow Him by giving us commandments. Following the commandments can lead us to happiness. We certainly are not perfect, but God has given us a way to be forgiven of our sins through the Atonement of Jesus Christ.

Since a new star first appeared above Bethlehem, Christmas has been a season of light, reminding us that Jesus Christ is the light of the world. Together, we can celebrate His birth by making the world a brighter place.
